The Cars 108 forecast says we could be in for some storms this weekend around Flint, but certainly nothing like Hurricane Irene which battered the East Coast this past week.Since most of us busy Midwesterners haven't been through a storm of that magnitude, you can see what one looks like throug…

Unlike the episode in Texas earlier this season where a baseball fan fell to his death, or the incident at this year's Home Run Derby, where a man nearly fell trying to snag a ball, this baseball hit into the stands has a much different outcome -- and a funny video clip, to boot! Check it out a…
